21.4.4 Cylinder surface transformation (TRACYL)
Software option
You require the following software option in order to use this function:
"Transmit and peripheral surface transformation".
Precondition
● There must be at least one rotary axis at the machine.
● The milling tool must be radially oriented to the cylinder to be machined.
Function
The following groove machining operations can be performed with the Cylinder surface
transformation functions:
● Longitudinal grooves on cylindrical bodies
● Transverse grooves on cylindrical objects
● Grooves with any path on cylindrical bodies
The path of the grooves is programmed with reference to the unwrapped, level surface of the
cylinder. Programming can be realized using straight line/circle, drilling or milling cycles or
contour milling (free contour programming).
